IF constructs: Selection of multiple objects or numbers - Kyrbis - 06-21-2012 05:45 AM

Hi there. I have problems with some IF constructs, as i simply don't get it how to select multiple numbers for an argument. I know it has to be simple, but...i don't get it ^^

Here's an example of what i want to do:

ON=@SpellCast

IF <SRC.ISGM>
RETURN 0
ELIF <ARGN1>== (spell number one to spell number 16 for example)
MESSAGE This is beyond your Rank.
RETURN 1
ENDIF

So, if I want to select Spell 1 and 2, might it be
ELIF <ARGN1>== 1 || <ARGN1>== 2 || and so on?
or can i simplify it anyways?

I want to hold it simple for learning and very basic scripting, but seems i need some help here :/

Look up the programming concept Comparisions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_(computer_programming)

So we could actually do this...

Code:

<ARGN1> == 1 || <ARGN1> == 2 || <ARGN1> == 3 || <ARGN1> == 4 ...

Those || mean OR so this works.

But a quick glance at that link should show there's a better way.

Code:

<ARGN1> < 17

As I read it, and tried....math is simply logical. Haven't thought of using this comparison, while it is so simple and compact. Thanks alot ^^

This is better one Smile

But if you use complex; for example
1,6,12,60 etc

you can use this

Code:

[function f_seperator]

if (<argv[0]> == 0)

return <eval <argv> - 1>

else

return <argv[<argv[0]>]>

endif

[Defname d_asd]

asd=1,6,12,60

and in-code

Code:

for 1 <f_seperator 0,<def.asd>>

if <f_seperator <dlocal._for>,<def.asd>> == <ARGN1>

MESSAGE This is beyond your Rank.

RETURN 1

ENDIF
